A Pet-Safe Trailing Plant for Bright Indoor Spaces

Looking for a soft, cascading accent that thrives indoors? Meet Pilea depressa—often nicknamed Baby Tears, Corsican Creeper, or Paddy’s Wig. Tiny, rounded leaves spill over the rim of its basket to create a plush, textured curtain of green. It’s an easy companion for bright kitchens, cozy reading nooks, and terrarium-inspired corners.

Quick note on naming: Pilea depressa is sometimes mislabeled as “Mother of Thousands” (that common name belongs to Kalanchoe daigremontiana). Your plant is the vining, pet-friendly pilea with delicate leaves—not the succulent that produces plantlets along its margins.

Plant Profile

  • Botanical Name: Pilea depressa
  • Common Names: Baby Tears, Corsican Creeper, Paddy’s Wig
  • Family: Urticaceae
  • Native Range: Caribbean
  • Container: 4.5" hanging basket (ready to display)
  • Toxicity: Generally considered non-toxic to pets and people

Why You’ll Love It

  • Lush texture: Dense, miniature leaves give a soft, mossy look that pairs beautifully with modern or cottage décor.
  • Effortless style: Trails naturally—no training required—so it looks full and finished right out of the box.
  • Versatile use: Perfect in hanging baskets, as a trailing accent in mixed planters, or near terrariums for a layered look.
  • Pet-friendly: A great choice for households with curious cats or pups.

Care Guide

Light: Bright, indirect light keeps growth compact and leaves vibrant. Tolerates medium light; avoid harsh, direct sun that can scorch tiny foliage.

Water: Keep evenly moist but never soggy. Let the top 1–2" of soil dry slightly, then water thoroughly. Take the basket down for a full soak and allow excess to drain before rehanging.

Humidity: Loves a bit of moisture in the air (around 50–70%). Bathrooms with natural light or a nearby humidifier work wonders.

Temperature: Comfortable in typical homes (60–75°F). Protect from cold drafts or sudden temperature drops.

Pruning: Pinch or trim long vines to encourage a fuller, cushiony shape. You can root healthy cuttings to thicken the plant.

Feeding: During spring and summer, use a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer monthly.

Growth Habit: Trailing; vines can reach 1–2 ft with good light and consistent care.

Styling Tips

  • Hang near an east- or west-facing window where leaves can catch the glow without direct rays.
  • Layer above taller plants to create a gentle “green waterfall” effect.
  • Pair with contrasting textures—like a glossy philodendron or a structured hoya—for a balanced vignette.

Happiness Guarantee

Each plant is hand-selected and packed with care so it arrives healthy and ready to thrive. Questions after it arrives? Our Brooklyn-based team is happy to help.

Fantastic
Color: Beige, Size: A-132''W-6 Panel
I am perennially in the process of rearranging, reorganizing, getting ready for yard sales, changing the functions of various rooms, moving everything out of a room to do a deep clean, etc, which means that there is always SOME part of my house, if not the entire thing, that is a disaster zone. Having someone knock on my door triggers a "duck and cover" reflex because it's so embarrassing for anyone to see that I live like this. (I *feel* like I don't, really, because I know that all the various stages are all temporary, but when there's always something temporary going on, it might as well be permanent, you know?) So THANK HEAVENS for a room divider that is not only large enough to divide my uncomfortably long den in half the long way so I can shove all the messy parts up against the back wall -- that is not only simple and attractive and neutral and (this is important) NOT BLACK because I have multiple pets and anything black in this house will be pet-hair-colored within 20 seconds -- that not only has **SIX** panels for lots of options of how I want to divide the space/s -- but is also on WHEELS. Someone out there really does love me, it's true! The panels are stable *enough* - I'm not going to lie and say that nothing is going to knock them over, because I have some balance issues, and I also have cats, and both of those circumstances has resulted in a mess on at least one occasion. But in the cats' defense, they've never dealt with a room partition that didn't hang from the ceiling before; and in my defense, I just grabbed the first thing I could reach on the way down. Not the product's fault in either case. Assembly was a little dicey as I am currently in **bilateral** (oh yes, that's fun) wrist braces, so I had to give up until I had help. But I think if you're able-bodied, you shouldn't have any difficulty. The only down side is, now that I've hidden away all the mess so I can break out the holiday decorations, you know what happens next, right?? That's right... the PERMA-MESS ZONE. Oh no. Oh well. Full item name: Room Divider 132''W Wall Divider for Room Partition (Heavy Duty Base) 6 Panel Partition Room Dividers, Freestanding Room Divider Screen Separation W/Wheel Folding Privacy Screen Panel Space Separator (six panels, beige)

Difficult assembly, doesn’t fold well, looks good fully open
Color: Grey, Size: B-88''W-4 Panel
The instructions for this divider are very inadequate. After having to redo parts of the assembly, I have finally assembled it. The divider itself seems very nice when it is fully open, however it is not possible to fold it well as all the bars with the wheels go in various directions making it impossible to fold it neatly. And it has a large footprint. It is possible that I did not assemble it fully well because of the lack of adequate instructions. I am not even sure if I will keep it because I need to fold out of the way when nothing in use.

Slightly challenging build
Color: Beige, Size: A-88''W-4 Panel
This was my second screen set I've purchased, first of this style. Not the easiest to assemble. Lots of pulling and tugging; not a highlight in my day.

Commercial grade divider suitable for many needs
Color: Beige, Size: A-132''W-6 Panel
This item will be used at a future event where we need to separate a single locker room into two large areas, without any construction. This divider is perfect for the job because the partitions can be 1 to 6 panels and it will roll into place. When the event is over, the divider will fold/roll away and the locker room will return to its original design. The unit is very heavy, which will ensure that it is sturdy and stable. All the components arrived, wrapped in plastic to prevent damage. The screen material is a woven polyester in a cream color that will occlude any visibility but it may be possible to see shadows on the opposite side. The height is about 6ft, which would require a very tall person to "peep over" the divider. I needed a quality unit for this project and the frame, screens, and mobility will meet the needs. The divider is not the same as the small decorative dividers -- it is more of a commercial grade product, yet tasteful. If you want/need a small divider as an accent piece, this is not the best choice. This item could be used in a medical office, treatment/massage room, to divide an office room into two, or block a hallway in a building.
